Question 712070: The sum of the ages of a gold coin and a silver coin is 120 years. The age of the gold coin 15 years from now will be 15 years less than the age of the silver coin 10 years ago. Find the present ages of the two coins. Answer by Menjax(62) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! G = age of Gold coin S = age of Silver coin
G + S = 120
G = S - 10
S - 10 + S = 120
2S = 130
S = 65 Years old
G = 55 Years old
